    ASUS firmware qos not working

    I drafted a solution that used a set of 5 chain subroutines containing the mark and connmark like: MEDIUM MARK --setmark 0x3/0x17 CONNMARK --setmark 0x3/0x17 And then invoked the appropriate one in each QOSO rule using goto (not jump): -g MEDIUM. That seemed to achieve the original intent of...

    Fix This Bug Pls (Big Size File Copy And The Memory Getting Full) ver 386.4

    Ah yes, some also like having a rubbish GUI so they can tell people to stop being noobs and use the command line like a pro. ;)

    Fix This Bug Pls (Big Size File Copy And The Memory Getting Full) ver 386.4

    The behaviour's definitely a feature, but the fact the memory meter prominently displayed on the front page shows the cache is a bug. As illustrated by this thread. It's a meter that shows nothing useful, yet is being waved in people's faces as if it does. If the meter is low, that's fine. If...

    Fix This Bug Pls (Big Size File Copy And The Memory Getting Full) ver 386.4

    Once that starts happening, it's kind of a bit late... Wouldn't it be nice to have a memory meter that told you how close you were to that happening, rather than a basically decorative one? ;) Actually, just noticed the detail that the OP didn't say they rebooted - they just "restarted the...

    Fix This Bug Pls (Big Size File Copy And The Memory Getting Full) ver 386.4

    LOL. (Sorry, not laughing at you, I'm laughing that this GUI confusion has come up again so rapidly). See discussion here: https://www.snbforums.com/threads/ax88u-high-ram-usage-maybe.76650/ The "RAM usage" is just it caching the files. The most recent versions of the software "fix" the...

    MAKE: Argument list too long

    I've also hit this, and I applied a similar fix.

    AX88U high RAM usage, maybe?

    Yeah, I noticed the 32-bit truncation reading the code, but assumed we weren't hitting it yet. Forgot the swap space could be bigger than 4GiB. Sure, I can fix that.

    AX88U high RAM usage, maybe?

    That would suggest a lack of faith in the operating system doing its job. Anyway, I've made a PR improving the memory display, making it resemble htop more. (Although htop has its own issues, and has changed behaviour a few times recently - I've submitted a PR there too).

    AX88U high RAM usage, maybe?

    Heh, that's one way to sort out the memory graph. :oops: Could that be the only reason that's there?

    AX88U high RAM usage, maybe?

    I'm bored, and irritated by it. I'll investigate how easy it is to patch.

    AX88U high RAM usage, maybe?

    TLDR - the "cache used" only indicates how much you've accessed the disc in the immediate past, and will change from second to second. There's no point doing any sort of comparison on it. Given that, I'd say the GUI is being unhelpful here. The graph shouldn't just be showing "used including...

    Routing RT-AX88U

    Are you sure the TPLink responds to incoming pings on the WAN side? That's an option on Asus, which defaults to off. Try another device? Although disabling the firewall generally might defeat such a rule anyway.

    Routing RT-AX88U

    You have correct downward routing, as shown by the fact that 192.168.50.1 can reply to the ping. So it must be the firewall (and maybe an unwanted NAT?). The TPLink is regarding the 50 network as "outside" and refusing incoming connections. You probably need to totally shut off the NAT and...

    Routing RT-AX88U

    I may be slightly misunderstanding the topology here. What exactly is the TPLink configured to do? Does it have a separate WAN connection, or is your 192.168.50.0 its "WAN"? You talk about "seeing" devices. What exactly do you mean by that? Part of your post suggests there's some communication...

    Routing RT-AX88U

    The TPLink needs to have a fixed address on your 192.168.50.0 network - set this up as a static entry in your Asus's DHCP table. Then you need a routing entry on the Asus router "192.168.7.0 255.255.255.0 192.168.50.xxx", where xxx is the fixed address of the TPLink.

    How to prevent LAN devices from obtaining IPv6 addresses?

    Well, it's great as long as they're not wasting time trying to make IPv6 work. A situation where a device thinks it has a valid IPv6 address, but can't actually route packets is potentially the worst one, as it might delay successful IPv4 traffic. Generally stuff like web browsers will try both...

    ASUS firmware qos not working

    Right, having got the RT-AX88U up, it appears that the LTS fork has much closer to functioning TQoS than Merlin, particularly for IPv6. IPv6 does not function at all in the Merlin code - all filters are "ip" only, and the ip6tables are not loaded. The GUI does not show download stats, and I...

    How to prevent LAN devices from obtaining IPv6 addresses?

    Just switched over to using my new RT-AX88U, and giving it 386.4 myself, so I'm now on a similar page to you, at least. If router advertisements are disabled, then regardless of how your devices are getting addresses, they won't know where a router is, so won't know what to use as the first hop...

    Changing FTP default port

    I imagine the firewall is blocking it. There will be another piece of setup that adds an "allow port 21 input on eth0" exception rule to the firewall when you enable FTP WAN access. That'll need to be changed via the iptables command. You should see the port 21 rule with iptables -L INPUT -v...

    How to prevent LAN devices from obtaining IPv6 addresses?

    Hmm, I wonder if the router advertisements have really stopped. I'd run wireshark or something to check IPv6 traffic on the LAN. It's possible the device has decided to try DHCPv6 anyway - maybe because it isn't hearing router advertisements. I hoped most devices wouldn't do this, but they're...
